The Palm Beach Health Network
Is Expanding to the Treasure Coast
The Palm Beach Health Network is
pleased to announce the expansion of its
award-winning services to the Treasure
Coast. Plans are now underway to begin
building a new, technologically advanced
facility slated to open in Port St. Lucie in
2024. The 54-bed acute care hospital will
offer specialized surgical services includ-
ing orthopedics, spine, robotics, general
surgery, advanced cardiac care, and diag-
nostic services. This expansion will allow
the Palm Beach Health Network to
extend its acute care health system capa-
bilities to increase access to its services
locally across Martin and St. Lucie
Counties.
The facility will be the cornerstone of
the newly developed Florida Coast
Health Network, a sister healthcare entity
that will benefit from the depth of
resources in the Palm Beach Health
Network. On the campus of the new hos-
pital, the Florida Coast Health Network
will expand access to leading physicians in a convenient location with the addition of a new medical office building. There will also be greater access to outpatient surgical
services with affiliated ambulatory surgery centers through the Palm Beach Health Network’s relationship with United Surgical Partners International (USPI).
“Currently, many Martin and St. Lucie County residents travel south to seek advanced healthcare services,” said Maggie Gill, Chief Executive Officer. “With the future open-
ing of the Florida Coast Health Network, we will be able to create a stronger healthcare infrastructure with high-quality care for the Treasure Coast community.”
